Paul first joined Marilyn Manson in 2014 on a short run of tour dates. When Marilyn Manson was putting together the band for live shows it was Tyler Bates who suggested that Paul Wiley should be involved because of his guitar skills and they would complement each other and the band as a whole.

Paul's primary role began as live second guitarist, or lead guitarist when Bates wasn't available.
He continued the role of second guitarist in 2015 for The Hell Not Hallelujah Tour and from April 2015 he took up the role of lead guitarist due to Tyler Bates no longer being available to tour.
